    She is using muslin for some and fleece so will have different patterns and materials for different uses. Just sewing them together with a nice border, the ones which have already been made look lovely.
    Was thinking about making some of my own too but didn't know what fabric to use. Can you take a sneeky picture to show us size etc?Will be much nicer for a new born bottom than cold wipes that make the poor love scream.

    So glad the dog is home Dizzi I had a cute image of her playing dead with big eyes from your first point so I was giggling at your description. Is she cut from walking of rough things outside? Hope she heals soon, glad she is back safe and sound :) hope your appointment to register Erin goes well.
    Hugs to all those who had a rubbish night. Seems to be the night for rubbish sleep. I'm another on the list. Had a lot of pain last night as a busy day, but I was woken up by a horrible dream. Then of course I needed a wee, but could barely move. Then after getting back to,back the cat pounces on me wanting a fuss. Well the bad dream was so so daft but still I was awake so put tv on, this is now gone 5am and I've been awake since before 4. Of course OH is awake and not happy. Luckily I feel back to,sleep, OH left me a honey sandwich (I'd asked for toast, but knew I'd be asleep by the time I'd made it). Still very stiff, achy and sore so am having an easy day today.
    Good luck for your test results Ikkle and for your scan Michka
    Amymo sorry your midwife changed the appt, I'm very inpatient and already counting down. I'm sure you look great in your dress. I know how it feels o no have much to chat about, but I'm sure seeing real life people might cheer you up. :)
    Elelyn hugs for today, thinking of you and OH
    OH is loving touching the bump now. Even before I get a hello kiss hands are on the bump. I'm like I am still here. Put it to good use and he rubs the cream in now. Not that I'd want strangers rubbing anything anywhere!
    Triangle how dare you mention chocolate hobnobs ;) now I'm salivating over the keyboard! And I've none in the house :(
    I was thinking about flapjacks in the night so if my legs feel strong later I may have to make some.
    Rebekah is your scan on Monday or Tuesday?
    Well I should probably get out of bed now before it's officially afternoon.
    Sending big labour vibes to the boldies xx

    Still haven't really felt baby move yet; having looked on various websites I know it can be up to 23 weeks for first time mums but I am still getting a bit anxious! I have my next appt with midwife on Tuesday though so will ask her is still haven't felt anything by then.

    I have only just started feeling ladyboyd this last few days and I am in week 20. This is 2nd pregnancy too so don't worry about feeling things especially if your placenta is in the way.

    Jovi, my neighbours are noisy so and so's too. Maybe not as bad as yours but there's a family of four and the youngest son, who's about 23/24 is loud even when he talks. He's in a band *rolls eyes* and plays bass, badly! They also have a bird I want to kill. I'm sure they don't cover it over in the evenings as it never shuts up! They also like to vacuum at all hours and the whole family have a particular liking for Sing Star Superstar!

    As you said though, revenge will be sweet :D

    xx

    Funny, our neighbours are maniacal vacuumers too, their record is 5 times in one afternoon :p they are a family of him and her (both mid 20's) and three young kids... you would expect most of the noise to come from the kids but it doesn't lol it comes from her yelling at the kids, their dog barking and someone in the house trying to play the keyboard. Doesn't help that our walls are paper thin and you can hear lots anyway... After two years of this, I can't wait to get my revenge hehe :D
  • Dizzi I'm sure you already know, but I remember you saying that the micro pampers aren't normally included in offers. I'm on boots website and they're in the 3for2 offer :)

    Well for those ladies asking about the matalan swimsuit (bellola and LMM I think?) it has just arrived. Delivered by a delightful man who took the opportunity to get a look down my top and called me "sweetheart" *yuck*
    Anyway I've tried it on and it fits nice. The cups seem reasonably generous. The top and bottom section are separate at the front but not the back (I'm assuming to accommodate growing bump). It's a little lose around the bottom of my bump but not too much and at least it allows for growing room. I would recommend it for £14, I got the red one and the colour is lovely. Can't wait to go try it out :) I ordered a size 12. Which reminds me since my disastrous shopping trip to H&M I have bought two pairs of leggings, a pair of jeans and a swimsuit all in a size 12! So I'm going to assume it was H&M with stupid small sizes. Screw you H&M you shall not be getting any of my custom! ;)

    Patience is a virtue I lack! :p
  • Ooh fantastic, think I'll order them later, cheers Emsbet
    Miss Money I'm afraid if I see the fairy first I may take advantage ;) still in bed, legs are too sore and I'm desperate for a cuppa. Think it's time for the kettle to come upstairs :)

    H&m are terrible for sizes. I got a pair of trousers from next in my normal size (elastic pockets) that I still can't wear as the fall off me!!!
    Same size, overbump jeans from h&m - had to stop wearing them at 17 weeks as they were cutting into my bump!!
    Best investments have been leggings and overbump cords from next I got in the sale for £11 I think. I'm not exactly slim so I was able to wear most of my tops ( I don't wear tight tops anyway) and long tunics until now.
